Things were very quiet back there

You really ought to try it back there

But when you think you've had enough

It's come the time to pack your stuff and go

I know

I know I'm going upfront

Out in front

Leaving everyone behind

Got to see what I can find

Upfront

Upfront, out in front

I was always meant to be

There for all the world to see

Upfront

Nothing but beginners back there

They never heard of winners back there

They laughed at all my crazy schemes

They told me to forget my dreams and stay

No way

The way to go is upfront

Out in front

Leaving everyone behind

Got to see what I can find

Upfront

Upfront, out in front

I was always meant to be

There for all the world to see

When the living is high

And the loving is free and easy

Every star in the sky is shining for me

Upfront, out in front

Leaving everyone behind

Got to see what I can find upfront

Upfront, out in front

I was always meant to be

There for all the world to see
